SONG Community Helpers

(to the tune of "Oh My Darling Clementine")

Community helpers,Community helpers,Community helpers,All around,They are people we rely on,To help make a great town.

There are doctors,And nurses,Firefighters and police,Emergencies are why we need them,Any day of the week. There are farmers,Chefs, and bakers,Waiter and waitresses,Feeding

people is their job,They give us food that's good to eat.

There are electricians,Capenters and plumbers,On worksites.They make houses and our buildings,Safe and sound and build right.

Do you know of any more people,

Who are in your neighbourhood,Who work together to build a community,That we live in happily?

PoetryIf I Could Build a Town

 Betsy Franco

 If I could build a town, well then,

 I know just what I'd make:

 an ice cream store, a toy shop,

 and a store with bread and cake.

 I guess I'd make a park

 and build a nifty fire station.

 Say, would you like to help me?

 It just takes imagination!
